So far, my Mastodon presence has mostly been about cats and hobbies, but I also have activist history. In my Twitter days I followed accounts dealing with , domestic abuse and highlighting mostly male-perpetrated violent crimes against women. I have not been able to find equivalent Mastodon accounts tackling these crucial areas but I'd very much like to boost these topics.

So, does anyone reading this know of Mastodon accounts tackling these subjects?

And we need publicised, detailed statistics to prove change is coming.

But look at the answers to these FOI requests from last year.

Apparently, it costs too much to look into , so the police won't do it. What are we to make of that?

I’m fed up of not being safe in the city to walk home.
